Hints of cherries and mushroom on the nose. Medium-bodied, cherry-driven, earthy and fresh palate. Light but quite acidic finish. Great pinot!

I really like this - nice, light, crushed rocks, flowers, and a dollop of cherry fruit.

Nice lower-end of the medium body Pinot noir spectrum at a reasonable price

Fresh strawberry quickly adds layers of char and tannin, suggesting a smoky strawberry compote — but the fresh strawberry taste is irrepressible and comes back here and there.

From one of my very favorite Sauvignon Blanc producers, this is pure Pinot Noir. The natural granite comes to the fore. This is super value for the price.

Really really balanced. Light and lush. Perfect introduction into Pinot Noir.
